CCPB players work hard training, encouraging, and supporting one another and that work paid off for players.  Jenny Travis and partner Haley Jamison won Gold in 4.5 Women’s Doubles.  Travis said afterwards, she went into this tournament with no expectations and feeling no pressure.  It’s the first time a CCPB player has medaled in a 4.5 event striking Gold.  Marvin Travis and Kayla Travis also had a great tournament placing 4th in 4.5 Mixed Doubles and Kayla and Kayla Yeh placing 4th in 4.5 Women’s Doubles.  Just a few years ago the Travis’ were competing in 3.0 tournaments, now CCPB players newer to the game are winning at the 3.0 level and are going to be knocking at that upper-level door.  Peter John partnered with Amy Lockwood (her first medal) to win Silver in 3.0 Mixed Doubles and partnered with Mike Omar (his first medal) to win Bronze in 3.0 Men’s Doubles.
